Game consoles usually become cheaper in the years following their launch. Not so the PlayStation 5, which was launched in November 2020 for $399, but five and a half years later costs $599. This obviously has a drastic effect on sales.

      Yup. And if they don’t, it’s cause they can’t afford it, so a price increase certainly isn’t going to help things

      And they’re really old now.

      And hardly any new games have been released for it.

      If MS wasn’t so cack-handed they’d be selling hardly any.
